Well, I guess I'm coming back to these forums, after being gone a while. I've become interested in Hackintoshes recently, and I found that my account here was still active.

I used to change every few years, but I've used this one since ~2004.

So, if I can, I'd like my name changed to Bender.

Yes, like the Futurama character.

Thats only the Display Name. I need the actual member name wink.gif

Yeah display name IS the member name. Meaning if you changed the display name to Bender, all your posts, profile, everything to the public would appear as "Bender". The only thing that doesn't change is your login name, so you still have to login with "Fireware"

Which is why I wanted my name changed, so I could just log in as Bender tongue.gif

Not gonna happen anytime soon. What's the point anyways? You are the only one that will see yourself logging in as "Fireware". Everything else will say "Bender"

Only Admins can change the login name.

Ya I change my name more than I change underwear.

This really should've been taken up as a PM - no need for a whole topic about it.

Anyway, this is your answer: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showuser=43273
